91 the second time around. Cool. I thought I did maybe a little better, I was hoping for a 92, but whatever.

These 3rd six weeks seem like a ***** though... it's a lot tougher than the 2nd six weeks, and plus we're doing midterms

The annoying thing about this class is that you may get all the multiple choice questions right, but your essay/ free response won't necessarily be as perfect.

My class is the other way around. The Multiple Choice is the hard part. The teacher grades the essay liberally to help your grade; she might make a lot of marks (to help you learn), but she'll usually give you a great grade.

I might get something like 30/50 on the M.C., but I usually get about a 45 on the essay. That amounts to abouta 75... I usually range from a 74-84 in my test grades. My essay grades are about 82-87, soemtimes in the A range. This doesn't mean I'm a good writer, my teacher just grades easy.

She grades easy but she marks hard.. so that we LEARN without having our GPA ruined.

Everyone else I know tells me college is infinitely easier than high school.

I think that all depends on where you go...

Like Pianogirl said, it depends on where you go and also what classes you take. If you take a bunch of easy classes, it will be easy, if you take hard classes, well, it'll be hard. It's your choice.

ok. well an 88 is amazing for apush. 7 out of 28 ppl in my class are passing and im on the verge of failing. it's more like self-dependent in that class. im taking four ap classes this yr as a junior and besides apush, my lowest grade would be an 87 in ap chem. seriously lectures in my class dont help @ ALL.
